During the school year I was an elementary school substitute and childcare worker. I am looking for a position with regular hours for the summer. I enjoy teaching children about any subject they are curious about. Personally I love plants, nature, and human history. I find working with children is the most rewarding and heartwarming experience, even on the rough days. Hands on learning is what I am about! Seeing them grow and learn to communicate their needs is a wonder. I am available Mon-Fri and am pretty flexible with scheduling if need be.
